Nikon Binoculars 4 12X42 User Manual

Nikon Laser IRT 4-12X42  
Instruction Manual  
Congratulations on your choice of a Nikon Laser IRT. Your new scope is the finest  
example of Nikon’s rugged and durable construction and precision bright optics;  
important qualities for a serious shooter’s riflescope.  
Whether you use your scope for hunting or for target shooting, the procedure for  
mounting is identical. After mounting the scope on your riflescope, follow the  
procedures for reticle alignment.  
When setting the reticle for hunting, you should determine your standard range and  
then adjust the reticle based upon that reading distance. For targets which vary  
from that standard distance you may simply adjust the position of the reticle in  
relation to your target, or you may wish to use the procedure for trajectory  
compensation. It’s up to your personal preference.  
We hope that you will enjoy your new Nikon Laser IRT for many years to come.  
Enjoy using it, and above all, always follow safe shooting procedures!

Infrared/manual control distance measurement system  
The Nikon Laser IRT emits invisible, eyesafe, infrared energy pulses that reflect off  
the selected target back to its optical receiver. Sophisticated precision charge  
circuitry is used to instantaneously calculate distances, by measuring the time it  
takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefinder to the target and back. The  
maximum range of the instrument depends on the reflectivity of the target, its color,  
surface finish, size and shape.  
The following factors ensure best range and accuracy:  
Nighttime use  
Cloudy weather  
Bright-colored targets  
Targets with highly reflective surfaces  
Targets with shiny exteriors  
Large-size targets  
Shooting targets facing at 90 degrees  
Measurement may result in inaccuracy or failure in the following cases:  
Slender or small target  
Target has diffusing reflective surface  
Target does not reflect the laser beam (glass, a mirror, etc.)  
Black target  
Target has pronounced depth  
In snow, rain or fog

Operational Summary  
Riflescope  
1. Diopter adjustment  
(1) Look through the eyepiece with your eye positioned about 4 inches away from  
the eyepiece lens (Fig. 9), and you will see the Nikoplex reticle (Fig. 10), or the BDC  
reticle (Fig. 11).  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Be sure your eye is positioned within proper alignment and proper eye relief  
otherwise the view will “black out”.  
(2) Point the objective end of the scope at the sky (Do not point at the sun) or at a  
plain unpatterned wall.  
Turn the eyepiece adjustment counter-clockwise and then turn it clockwise until the  
reticle appears sharp.  
2. Magnification  
The Laser IRT 4-12X42 has a variable magnification from 4 to 12X.  
To change powers, just rotate the power selector ring until the desired  
magnification appears adjacent to the power index dot (Fig. 2).  
3. Adjustment of the riflescope  
Sighting through the riflescope, align the rifle with your aiming point on the target  
and shoot a trial round. If the bullet does not hit the aiming point, adjust the  
elevation and windage after removing the Adjustment cap, as follows:  
4-12X42  
For the Laser IRT adjustment is made by turning the grip by hand. If the bullet  
hits under the aiming point, turn the grip in the direction of the arrow marked  
“U”. If the bullet hits to the left of the aiming point, turn the grip in the direction  
of the arrow marked “R” (Fig. 12).  
Note:  
The windage and elevation scales of the Laser IRT 4-12X42 is calibrated in  
divisions of minute of angle with a click at intervals of minute of angle (half  
division).  
When adjusting the reticle to the point of aim, remember that one minute of  
angle equals approximately one inch (2.54 cm) at 100 yards (91.44 m).  
Therefore, if the impact point is two inches (5.08 cm) low and one inch (2.54 cm)  
right at 100 yards (91.44 m) Parallax Setting, you should adjust two minutes of  
the angle up one minute of the angle left.
